Wreck of the Week: 1958 Ford Ranch Wagon

It wasn’t a merry Christmas for anyone in this 1958 Ford Ranch Wagon, which got walloped in front of a Menlo Park, Calif., hotel on Dec. 24, 1959. This hauler looks like it was loaded down for the holidays. The 1958 model year marked the first time the Ranch Wagon was available with four doors. It was the base station wagon trim level for ‘58 and could carry either six- or eight-cylinder power.
